The Nokia Lumia 800 features familiar Nokia elements like unified design, vivid colours, outstanding Carl Zeiss imaging capabilities, and a unique unibody construction.

We had a chance to check out the Lumia 800 and the Lumia 710 last year. We were very impressed with the build quality and the performance of the Lumia 800, it is a premium smartphone and one of the better Windows Phone devices that we've tried.
Glad to see there's something (sorta) new and exciting for Windows Phone in Canada.
